Oh hell yes, it’s that time of year again when those mounds of mouthwatering mollusks signal that it’s oyster season. So grab your shucking knife and head down to the Jettyview Walk at Morse Landing Park for the 11th annual Murrells Inlet Oyster Roast set for Saturday. It’s all-you-can-shuck and jam down your craw steamed oysters for $30 per person in advance (available via www.murrellsinletsc.com), or $35 at the event. Singer-songwriter Johnny Tanner from Florence will perform. It’s free to get in, but not to eat, obviously, but we’re not going to tell you if other food will be available, because...this is an oyster roast, mothershucker! But you’ll damn sure be able to buy some beer to help wash down the oysters. If you forget your oyster knife, they’ll be sold on-site for $5. The Murrells Inlet Oyster Roast is from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and is a benefit for community planning organization Murrells Inlet 2020. Morse Park Landing is off of U.S. Business 17, next to the Hot Fish Club. For more information, call 357-2007.

He’s probably not as commonly known as some other high-profile blues player such as B.B. King, but Buddy Guy is perhaps more influential on blues-rock guitarists because the 78-year-old flamboyant axe-man absolutely shreds and he brings his fastidious chops back to the House of Blues on Saturday. He’s been credited with bridging the gap between traditional blues and electric rock ‘n’ roll, and had a profound impact on Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmy Page, just to name a few. Quinn Sullivan is also on the bill. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and the show starts at 8:30. Tickets are $36. House of Blues is at 4640 U.S. 17 S., Barefoot Landing, North Myrtle Beach.
